The Unlocking: An Autism Story, author Porscia Lam

From debut author Porscia Lam. The Unlocking unfolds in pandemic-stricken Melbourne, Australia.. charting one family's desperate battle against the escalating behaviour of their autistic toddler. During a break between lockdowns, and with much trepidation, the family embark upon a journey with applied behaviour analysis (ABA) therapy. ABA is an intensive therapy considered the gold standard in early intervention for autism, but with a controversial past. The outcome is life-changing. Beneath the veil of dysfunction and anxiety, they discover an outrageously creative, highly intelligent, and hilarious little boy. The Unlocking is an atypical memoir spanning five epic years-agonising and wretched, hilarious and triumphant, offering solace and hope to others while shining a spotlight on a little-known profile of autism. It is an ableist's humbling lesson on disability. Porscia's memoir serves as a roadmap for new parents feeling overwhelmed and uncertain after their child is diagnosed with autism.
